FOOTNOTES: The
reference to Kurt
Vonnegut in the title of this page is a nod to a master who
dealt with leaping back and forth through one's own timeline far
better than I ever could, or can. This is the meaning of the current
chapter, which will have us jumping about like Billy Pilgrim from Slaughterhouse
Five.
Fear
not, though, there will be a reason, and an answer, as to the how
and why of this odd storytelling, and near the end of the chapter, a
full explanation of all that is of concern in this tale. Just ride
along with the leaps, and construct the future-past as we go.
